Bar Question

can i fly an LEI or a ARC on my frenzy 7.3 bar ( small ones)

yes, as long as the line lengths are proper. Safety system will be iffy as LEI wouldn't like the top hat safety.

Might be better to use the bar off your 9m fuel? That bar should have a safety system that goes to one line, which most LEI's and ARC's like, rather than the two-line top-hat on the Ozone.

Hey abkayak
I use totally random lei bars with my arcs. For the best performance, just make sure they have plenty of depower throw and depower trim.
It's all good.

I am going to say no!

It really depends on the LEI, I wouldn't try an arc.
Ozone Frenzys have a very short depower rope. Also the amount you can sheet out is very limited.

Arcs on the other hand have very long depower straps and a large distance you can sheet out. Same with most LEIs
